The ad doesn't mention clone anywhere and the implication is the seller is familiar with the restoration so he should know. I guess I should stop being so surprised when this happens. When I finally get my funds together I will certainly check with you guys first. Only three college educations to go!

Also, the X77 has a ducted hood. All Camaros before January of '69 had flat hoods.
Today, all first gen cars have ducted hoods.
I have a friend in our Club the wants to give away the flat hood off his '68 because nobdy wants to buy it.
Go figure.

I think the hoods and spoilers were probably a popular mod even when these cars were new. My old '69 Z/28 had both when i bought it in '75 even though the serial # was under 5000. It had the long spoiler.

The green fake X-77 car was discussed before.

The white X-33 car is nice but to be picky, "The RS/Z28 DZ Carburetor is all original", no it's not.

Why does Ebay let people commit fraud like that? But, then again, who but you guys would know? Oh well, at least the great car is going to a great person.

I think ebay should take crap like that more seriously.

Ebay can't police every ad, nor do they have the knowledge to.

It's an electronic swap meet, nothing else. My local newspaper can't police "for sale" ads in regard to the authenticity of the item listed. A swap meet organizer can't monitor everything sold by every vendor.

We all have to do our own homework and use resources like this board.

Kim, not to be too picky, but the first ZL1 was delivered on Dec. 31, 1968. New Years Eve.
Very late on New Years Eve.
